Wideband, wide-angle coding phase gradient metasurfaces based on Pancharatnam-Berry phase

چکیده
A new concept of the coding phase gradient metasurface (CPGM) is proposed, which is constructed using the phase gradient metasurface as the coding elements. Different from the previous coding metasurface (CM), both the coding sequences and gradient phases in the coding elements are designed to manipulate the electromagnetic (EM) wave for the CPGMs, and thus the manipulation will be more flexible. As an example, wide-band, wide-angle CPGMs with zero and non-zero phase gradient based on Pancharatnam-Berry (PB) phase are achieved using the co-polarization reflection unit cells under circularly polarized (CP) wave incidence. Both theoretically calculated and numerically simulated scattering patterns of the designed CPGMs demonstrate the expected manipulations. Additionally, two kinds of random CPGMs with different phase gradients are designed for radar cross section (RCS) reduction, and the measured RCS reveals a good accordance with the simulation.

Gradient Nonlinear Pancharatnam-Berry Metasurfaces.
We apply the Pancharatnam-Berry phase approach to plasmonic metasurfaces loaded by highly nonlinear multiquantum-well substrates, establishing a platform to control the nonlinear wave front at will based on giant localized nonlinear effects. We apply this approach to design flat nonlinear metasurfaces for efficient second-harmonic radiation, including beam steering, focusing, and polarization m...

Metasurfaces, as the ultrathin version of metamaterials, have caught growing attention due to their superior capability in controlling the phase, amplitude and polarization states of light. Among various types of metasurfaces, geometric metasurface that encodes a geometric or Pancharatnam-Berry phase into the orientation angle of the constituent meta-atoms has shown great potential in controlli...
متن کاملHigh-efficiency large-angle Pancharatnam phase deflector based on dual-twist design.
We have previously shown through simulation that an optical beam deflector based on the Pancharatnam (geometric) phase can provide high efficiency with up to 80° deflection using a dual-twist structure for polarization-state control [Appl. Opt.54, 10035 (2015)]. In this report, we demonstrate that its optical performance is as predicted and far beyond what could be expected for a conventional d...

In this reviewpaper,we report recent progress on Pancharatnam–Berry (PB) phase optical elements, such as lens, grating, and de ector. PB lenses exhibit a fast switching time between two or more focal lengths with large diopter change and aperture size, which is particularly attractive for addressing the accommodation mismatch in head-mounted display devices. On the other hand, PB gratings and d...
